Chapter 234: Three Songs

Qin Tang was already ready for the song he sang in the Spring Festival Gala. He was given an exception and sang two songs in a row.

Looking at the Spring Festival Gala for so many years, it is not particularly rare for singers to sing two songs in a row in the Spring Festival Gala, but after entering the 21st century, the stars who have sung two songs in a row in the Spring Festival Gala have been qualified for two or three people who sing national music for more than ten years, and there is no one in the pop music scene.

And this year, Qin Tang not only received a strong favor, but also became the first pop star in the 21st century to sing two songs in a row.

Qin Tang was able to get such an honor, firstly, because of his super popularity, and secondly, the director team also had a good eye for him.

Qin Tang has already chosen two songs, and others sing old songs on the Spring Festival Gala, but he sings new songs on the spot, and Qin Tang is unique in this example.

There is no way, the main thing is that his talent has conquered the director team, fully recognizes his ability, and believes that his new songs will definitely be sought after by the public.

Therefore, Zhou Ruomin came to Qin Tang to ask for songs to be sung in the Spring Festival Gala, which is also the reason why she doesn't have to worry.

Qin Tang prepared two songs for himself, one is a festive song, from Andy Lau Hua Tsai's "Wishing you prosperity", and the other decided to use beyond's classic song, Huang Jiaju's swan song "Sea and Sky"!

The song "Wishing you prosperity" is not a classic, but it is the most festive song for the New Year. Andy also sang this song in the Spring Festival Gala, and also won the third prize in the song and dance category of CCTV's Spring Festival Gala program.

"Wishing you prosperity" is written by Andy Lau and Anxiu Lee, composed by Chen Dejian, and arranged by Wu Zhuoxian. The lyrics and melody are excellently matched, with strong and distinct national characteristics. Every sentence is easy to understand, and they all have a place, just like Bai Juyi's works, which are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Women and children can understand it, and it is full of fun, suitable for word of mouth, and shares the real joy of the New Year.

This song is special because it is not included in the album.

"Wishing you prosperity" was personally filled in by Andy Lau lyrics, expressing his hope to bless the world and hope that no sad things will happen in the future, so that everyone can celebrate the New Year happily.

Andy Lau also mentioned Liu Xiang in the lyrics, "We will be more exciting next year...... On the world stage, run faster than blacks. Andy Lau saw the low-key and hard-working athlete Liu Xiang, appreciated this spirit of wholeheartedly playing sports, and deliberately wrote Liu Xiang into a song to cheer him up.

As for "The Sea and the Sky", this song is one of Qin Tang's favorite songs, as Huang Jiaju's swan song, this song has always had a special meaning for Qin Tang.

"Sea and Sky" is a song that represents Huang Jiaju's personal style, and the lyrics and composition are all completed by Huang Jiaju alone. This song is one of the representative works of the band Beyond, and in 1993 this song won the Hong Kong Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Award and the My Favorite Local Song Award on the Pop Chart.

In 1992, Beyond shifted its business focus to Japan and ended its long-term relationship with New Yibao. It has always been Beyond's dream to become an international band, but due to the strict requirements of music production in Japan and the language barrier, Beyond was quite depressed for a while, but they still worked hard.

At the end of May 1993, Beyond returned to Hong Kong from Japan, which also coincided with the 10th anniversary of Beyond's founding, so Huang Jiaju wrote this song "Sea and Sky" that recorded Beyond's ten-year mental journey, the lyrics carried the hardships and persistence of Huang Jiaju and the band in Japan for development, and was included in the Cantonese album "Music and Anger".

This song also expresses Wong's inner struggle and disappointment with the Hong Kong music scene.

"Broad Skies" has all the hallmarks of POPROCK, but with a fighting spirit, the result of youthful enthusiasm amplified behind consoles and effects.

The impact of this song is not only in karaoke and song order programs, but in people's hearts.

This song brings people a positive attitude towards life, sticking to their ideals, and the belief that they will never give up.

The poignancy in the song, the freedom in the song, the indomitable in the song, and the majestic power in the song have inspired an entire generation. "Broad Sky" is one of the most outstanding works of Beyond's music career, which awakens the awareness of the main theme of the Hong Kong music scene and plays a kind of music that can resonate with the public.

It's a pity that this work, which marks Beyond's real maturity, has become Huang Jiaju's swan song, and such a cruel reality responds to the sad sense of fate in "The Sea and the Sky" to a certain extent.

Qin Tang has always wanted to sing "The Sea and the Sky", but he has been waiting for a suitable opportunity.

Now that the Spring Festival Gala is here, the opportunity has come, which is also the main reason for agreeing to the invitation of the director team of the Spring Festival Gala.

His two songs have been decided, and Zhou Ruomin's door-to-door request for songs has to make Qin Tang think of another song.

Zhou Ruomin's voice control ability is very strong, the high and low tones are tactful, and most of the songs he sings are more passionate.

Qin Tang paced back and forth in the room, constantly searching for the classic songs in his mind.

Finally, he thought of a song from Deng Ziqi's "Bubble".

Deng Ziqi is also a relatively talented female singer, at least in the Hong Kong music scene or the Chinese music scene, which is overly commercialized and has been very decaying, she is indeed a relatively rare singer of the new generation.

The appearance is beautiful and the singing skills are solid, this song from "Bubble", which is completely composed by her personal lyrics, is definitely her outstanding masterpiece. In 2013, the song won the "Top 20 Most Popular Golden Songs of the Year" award on the global Chinese song chart.

"Bubble" is a sad song created by Deng Ziqi in 2011, in 2011 Deng Ziqi was in a period of lovelorn, during that time she felt very depressed and wanted to escape, not only emotionally, but also at work.

So, she bought a ticket and flew to New York, USA, where she stayed for a week, one day she saw some clowns blowing bubbles on the lively streets of New York, that picture was actually very beautiful, but at that time she thought that although the bubble was very beautiful at this moment, it burst with her hand.

So, she thought that lies are like bubbles, beautiful but fragile, and the moment of rupture is even more heartbreaking, so she set out to write this song.

The song "Bubble" can express the fragility of love and commitment in a calm and low voice, and at the same time, it can also burst out with huge energy, just like seeing through this love bubble and breaking out of the cocoon and rebirth.

The song "Bubble" reveals a truth to people: love is as beautiful and moving as a bubble, but it bursts with a light touch of the hand, reminding people to cherish each other and protect the beauty of love.

In Qin Tang's opinion, this song is a good new song in the declining pop music scene, and the style of the song is very suitable for Zhou Ruomin to sing.

Three songs, "Wishing you prosperity", "Sea and Sky", and "Bubble", will make a shocking appearance in the Spring Festival Gala.
